20．High school plays a major role in shaping up your future and your whole development．Extracurricular（課外的） activities along with the studies can be very helpful．Make yourself take part in various activities and at the same time try to stand out in your studies．When you move out to college these efforts that you put in may count for a lot．
    High school is not just about books or classes．Schools always provide opportunities for students to socialize （社交）．There are various group tasks designed which allow the students to learn to work together．
     High school is the right time for you to discover yourself and bring out some of your hidden talents．In your lessons，you may find that you are better at English than you were earlier or have grown an interest for Math．High school also provides many other opportunities for students to take part in．These help develop leadership skills and management skills at an early age，which in turn is a way of preparing students to manage and plan their careers （事業(yè)） better．
   Balancing all activities is an experience in time management．If you have taken up a part-time job along with your high school you would have to arrange your time for studies，and extracurricular activities．Such management can go a long way in teaching you to manage things better when you take up a job．Moreover，they help build your character．You would be better prepared for additional stress that you may feel sometimes．
   When at high school you should pick up your classes wisely．Depending upon what you like and your career plan you should choose suitable classes．Doing something that you hardly like may get you very low grades as well as lose valuable time．Take up interesting and challenging classes that would allow you to put in those extra efforts．

7．When was the last time you faced disappointment from a certain outcome that did not meet your expectations？It could be any event in your life．Perhaps your meeting at work did not go as well as you expected．Your new job was not what you expected．Maybe your relationship did not work out the way you hoped it would．
Disappointments are dissatisfactions that arise when your expectations are not met by outcomes．In short，a） you had an expectation，b） things did not unfold against the expectation．
Every day，people deal with disappointments．Depending on how big the disappointment is and how you choose to deal with it，the feeling of disappointment may disappear after a short while or hang over your life for an extended period of time．If not handled properly，disappointments can lead to depression and eventually lack of concern．
Contrary to what people may think，disappointments are actually positive phenomena，for two main reasons．
1．Passion toward a cause
Disappointment is the reflection of your passion toward something，whether it is a certain goal，dream，desire or outcome．Wherever there is a cause，there will be an effect--in this case，the passion is the cause and disappointment is the effect．If you don't care about something，you wouldn't be feeling disappointed，would you？The very presence of disappointment suggests that this is something you care about so much that you would feel bad over it．The higher your disappointment，the stronger your passion for this is．
As Martin Luther King Jr puts it，"There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love．"This deep love is what drives you toward your goals，dreams and desires．This deep love will be what fuels you in life，bringing you to places you have never been before．This deep love is what makes life worth living．Remember that disappointment is always a better emotional state than neutrality where the individual feels indifferent toward anything．I would much rather be feeling a negative emotion any day than feeling absolutely nothing．The ability to feel is what sets us apart from non-living beings．To feel nothing is to be a robot or a machine．
2．Representing an opportunity for progress
Disappointment also signals an opportunity for progress and growth．If you are disappointed in an outcome，it means there is actually a certain error in your framework of thought which needs correcting．
Whenever you are disappointed，it means you have certain mental illusions （錯覺） about reality which you need to address．If your understanding of reality are always right，you will never feel disappointed at all．By correcting your illusions and getting a more accurate picture of the reality，you are equipped with more knowledge．This knowledge is a source of power，power for you to act toward your goals．
Think of disappointment as a troubleshooting tool which helps you iron out the twists in your understanding of reality．By using the knowledge from your previous experience，you can act more accurately toward your desires．The more you deal with disappointment and learn from it，the closer you will get toward your goals and dreams．
TitleWhy Disappointment Is Good
（66）Definition/Meaning/ConceptDisappointment is dissatisfaction with unexpected outcomes．
Facts If （67）improperlyhandled，disappointments can result in depression and lack of concern．Meanwhile，they can also be positive （68）phenomena．
Reasons Passion towards a cause1．Disappointment （69）reflectsa person's passion towards a goal，dream，desire or outcome．
2．Disappointment （70）Passionthat you care about something very much．
3．Feeling disappointed is （71）betterthan feeling nothing at all．
4．The ability to feel distinguishes human beings （72）frommachines．
Representing an opportunity for progress1．Disappointment is a （73）signalof an opportunity for progress and growth：there's an error to be （74）corrected．
2．Disappointment provides you with power to act towards your goal．
3．Disappointment can be considered as a troubleshooting tool that can help you （75）understandreality better．

15．Peter waved goodbye and closed the door slowly as Jane left home to visit her grandmother．Expecting a whole day to relax，he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on his first day off in months．"This will be like a walk in the park，"he'd told his wife，"I'll look after the kids，and you can go to visit your grandma．"
Things started well，but just after eight o'clock，his three little"good kids"-Adam，Bob，and Christopher-came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted"breakfast，daddy．"When food had not appeared within thirty seconds，Adam began using his spoon on Christopher's head as if it were a drum．Christopher started to shout loudly in time to the beat （節(jié)拍）．Bob chanted"Where's my toast，where's my toast"in the background．Peter realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds．
Life became worse after breakfast．Adam wore Bob's underwear on his head．Bob locked himself in the bathroom，while Christopher shouted again because he was going to wet his pants．Nobody could find clean socks，although they were before their very eyes．Someone named"Not Me"had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes．Peter knew the talk show had already started．

At exactly 11：17，Peter called the daycare centre （日托所）．"I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away．Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes？"The answer was obviously"yes"because Peter was smiling．

C．Reading quietly in the family room．
D．Eating apple jam from the bottle．
23．Why did Peter ask the daycare centre for help？D
